What is A Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is an extremely popular structural component made of cast concrete. It's a flat vertical concrete surface typically employed as a floor or for a roof. To ensure long-lasting durability and years of performance, contractors add welding wire mesh or reinforcing steel bars to a reinforced concrete slab.

While it's also important to get an expert calculate and take the proper measurements. In the end, the proper thickness will impact the integrity of the slab and also the overall structure. The slab's thickness can vary depending on the structure. For instance, in residential floor construction, 4 inches is the standard thickness. Experts recommend five to six inches of thickness for buildings that are regularly subject to heavy loads.

 

Benefits of Concrete Slabs

Concrete slabs are one of the most sought-after construction materials. Over the years, builders have used it to construct various construction structures. Concrete is a well-known choice for foundations , as well as other development projects. As opposed to other materials for construction, concrete has so many advantages. Its advantages include:

 

Longevity and durability

There's not a more durable construction material than concrete. With proper care and maintenance, you can make concrete structures last for decades. Some concrete structures can even last a lifetime. Correct reinforcement can extend the lifespan and toughness of concrete slabs. We can make concrete compact so that we do not have any pores or voids in the concrete slab. This reduces the risk of cracks or other damages.

 

Fantastic Thermal Mass

Concrete has a very high thermal mass, which refers to its capacity to regulate the flow of energy. Because of its thermal mass, it is able to improve indoor comfort, and also reduce or increase indoor temperatures through absorbing natural heat. Materials that have great thermal mass are beneficial in places with extreme day and night temperatures.

 

Resistance

Concrete has many advantages, in particular its resistance to different elements. Its main advantage is its absence of organic material. Therefore, it does not decline due to rotting, or burning caused by extreme heat. It also has an extremely high compressive strength, which ensures it will not crack when squeezed. We can also apply concrete treatment on concrete surfaces to make them more resistant to chemical spills and stains.

 

Flexibility

Another aspect that makes concrete popular is its versatility. It is so adaptable that you can do a lot of it. By employing different methods and application it is possible to create concrete slabs with the color, texture, and design you prefer. There are experts who can customize it, too.

 

Low Maintenance

In contrast to other construction materials concrete is incredibly simple to maintain. Concrete does not require frequent upkeep by a professional. You can quickly get rid of stains, dirt, and dust by using common cleaning products.

  

Poured Concrete Slab

Formed concrete slabs can be described as made by pouring the concrete on the site. We follow a particular procedure for making concrete at the site to ensure we get significant results. Concrete installation gives us liberty to make last minute changes on the design and layout of the surface. It also lets us alter the dimensions of the project in the field if needed. Based on its strengths, it's a good choice to build concrete projects with a custom design.

If there's a negative to this plan, it's time and cost. Since we'll pour a concrete slab on the site, we need more devices and tools, including mixing concrete and a bull floating. We'll also require more people to do the job. Thus, the expense of installing is higher. Poured concrete slabs are also very time-consuming. To cure concrete slab alone could take up to 21 calendar days. The slabs are not left with concrete that is still wet. We wait for concrete slabs to cure so we can perform a quality check before turning over the work. If you're unable to be patient, then this is the one for you.

 

Precast Concrete Slab

According to the name, the slabs are precast. The slabs are created in a factory before being delivered directly at the place of work. Although you have the option of modifying the dimensions in the slab, making adjustments and final-minute changes on the spot isn't possible. The slabs are not poured directly that are precast, it costs less and is also less time-consuming.

 

Decorative Concrete Slab

The decorative concrete slabs are designed with the color pattern, or the texture you prefer. They can also be customized with a design for your slabs, according to the design you like. This service is available only when you select the concrete slab services we offer. Otherwise, it's very difficult to design or style you'd like.
